SACM11 — Need for Groups of Asserted Links

Asserted links are already one-to-many, but only one is allowed at the supported-by (single) end. However, a strong case can be made for being able to have multiple ones and being able to group them. Substantial discussions both leading to the conclusion this should be included occurred during two FTF meetings ­ most recently in June 2011. Unfortunately, this occurred as the last discussion at the June meeting and exactly how best to do it (e.g. element names) evidentially due to time constraints was not judged firmly enough agreed upon to appear in the diagram resulting from this meeting.

This still needs to be included/finalized.

Change not considered necessary

Current arrangement for AssertedRelationship has 0..* source, and 0..* target. No additional constraints are given. Consequently it is possible to have multiple 1..* AssertedRelationships.
